This guy is a joke

This guy is a joke. He promises to respond to you but then disappears for months. His main email address in is his ebook, doesn't work, or he won't respond to it. He has lied to me about getting back to me so I want to let other people know that he can't be trusted!

I have now waited another 6 weeks and still havent heard back from Chris yet. So his customwe service is somehow worse than before.

Chris needs to work on his customer …

Chris needs to work on his customer service skills, he responds to a few emails once or twice and then disappears again this happened multiple times since I have purchased his program. He keeps apologizing, but how about instead of apologizing you just respond to my questions. It will save a lot of headache and issues. Someone shouldn't have to wait weeks for a response, especially if they are confused.

Too early to tell if the program is working but extremely disappointed with his customer service skills.

So here's what you need to know about …

So here's what you need to know about the AHR method.

I've been doing it for 12 months and I know everything about it so this is worth reading.

The key to the method is how it rebalances the hormones and enzymes in your scalp and heals fibrosis. DHT causes hair loss but only because it leads to inflammation and micro scarring in the scalp skin, which completely prevents hair from growing.

The Alternation Method (step 3 of the AHR method) heals fibrosis using a Dermaroller. I believe you can't possibly regrow your hair unless you do this. This the part of the method that everyone talks about where they start to see little hairs reactivating.

Once you've rebalanced the hormones in your scalp and healed the fibrosis you start to see dormant hairs regrowing but they're very small at first.

The last key to the method is increasing IGF-1 and blood circulation in your scalp. DHT causes IGF-1 and blood flow to the hair to reduce to the point that hair stops growing.

Once I started seeing the small hairs appearing over the following months more and more hairs appeared and at they all started getting longer and thicker.

Every day i drink the hair growth smoothie and use the alternation method to increase blood circulation in my scalp.

Several months later there are thousands of new hairs developing into full grown hairs.

If you really want to regrow your hair I believe this is the only way. Either this or something like platelet rich plasma therapy, which would work in a very similar way. I'd personally rather do the AHR method.

My hair is almost back to its full original thickness.

I'm one of the original invitees to use the method way back when it was first released. Here's what I've found:

1. It does take a little while to see any results but once it starts it's miraculous
2. I know a lot of members have seen results within a month or two of starting but I think they may have been lucky. I followed the instructions pretty rigorously and I didn't see much change until about 6 months in.
3. When it does start to work it works wonders

The first thing you start to see is hundreds if not thousands of tiny little hairs growing around your hair line. Once you see that, providing you continue following the instructions, it's like getting a major hair transplant. My hair doubled in thickness over the following 3 months. It really is miraculous.

Before I started the method my hair was a state of affairs. If I waited any longer I would have had to do the dreaded shave.

Now the difference is amazing. My hair is almost back to its full original thickness.

Hi Pope Fragcis,

Please send me your email address so I can verify your order. Since your review was not posted via the verified order link I assume this is a malicious review posted by a competitor, which is very sad and a real shame. People like you are ruining the authenticity of TrustPilot.

Please provide proof you have bought my method and have used it. If you had used it you would see it is not a scam by any stretch of the imagination. I am a genuine hair loss researcher with 10 years of experience. I have put 10 years of research into this method. It is not a scam. This is the best way in the world to naturally regrow your hair and I am living proof that it works.

You should be ashamed of yourself for posting a fake review without having even used my method. If you had used it you would see the amazing benefits of it, rather than being negative.

If you don't provide proof of purchase I will assume you haven't even seen my method and therefore your review is not authentic.

Regards,

Young Hair Loss

I'm very young, only 19. I've suffered from horrific hair loss from a very young age (14 or 15), which has verged on ruining my whole life. I stopped going out as much, I always wore hats. I was always worried to be in well lit rooms or outside in the sun because people would see my horrible sniny scalp. I was amazingly shy around girls. I tried my best to stlye my hair forward and spiky to hide the thinness but what girl would want a 19 year old guy who looks like hes got cancer or something.

I went to three differnt doctors about it and they all said the same thing. They basically tell you there's nothing you can do, except they say it with tonnes or complicated words. I was prescribed Propecia, which I took from ages 16-18, which is very young to use it but the doctor said in my case it's worth a shot for a short while because I was so depressed. This really helped for about 6 months and probably saved my hair a bit but then it stopped working and I started noticing the side effects. Not only was I shy around girls, now I had no desire to be with a girl at all. It was like I wasn't a man, I was just a thing. A pointless person, just existing. I became amazingly depressed, I had to take depression medication. Then one day I was reading Chris' blog and I looked at my life and realized this one single stupid horrible thing was ruining my whole life. I couldn't do anything I wantde to do. It was terrible. So I stopped taking Propecia and vowed never to take it again. I downloaded Chris' method and I read it. After reading that my mind was changed. I felt a lot better because I knew I could do something about my life. I had the power to fix my problems. And it was all there for me, I just had to do it.

I wqas pretty determined to succeed after the terrible year I'd been through. I've had some major bad luck in my teens but I've got a lot of determoination when it comes down to it. I stayed committed to the method for a whole year. My hair started growing back about 6 months ago and from there onwards its got better every week. I didn't bother to count hairs or anything like some guys did. I didn't need to cos my hair was regrowing so quick. Now it's nearly fully back to normal like when i was 13.

I'm a thousand times more confident now and I've even got a girlfriend. Its like I was postponing everything in my life and now I've sorted it I'm starting again and I'm so happy.

I'm just happy I finally fixed it. I wish I had found Chrises website when I was 14.

It works.

This method is very very clever. I can't see how anyone's hair wouldn't regrow if they follow these instructions. Basically it works by making your scalp hormones the same as they were when you were young. So you apply this mixture of ingredients to your scalp and you drink a smoothie and gradually over a number of weeks your scalp hormones change. This is basically the reason most people go bald - Because they have a build up of DHT hormone in their scalp and very low IGF1 and IGF1 is what basically makes your hair grow. So when you use this method after a while the hormone levels in your scalp start to go back to how they were when you were younger when your hair was growing thick.

I used the method for 6 months almost every day. I did it as much as I could cos I wanted to get my hair back as fast as possible. My hair is buzzed so any change was instantly visible. As soon as I started doing step 3 I was buzzing my hair TWICE AS OFTEN!!!

By about 5 months I stopped using the method cos my hair was just about as thick as I need it. I've been recommending Advanced Hair Research to everyone I know who's losing their hair. I should get a referral fee!

Honestly didn't think it would be this effective

I'm male, 32, been trying to regrow my hair for nearly 10 years with very limited success. Started the ahr method 6 months ago. Completely blown away by the results. I honestly didn't think it would be this effective. My hair's almost twice as thick now, close to how it was in my early twenties. It grows very fast. I can actually style it properly for the first time in years. I also feel 10 x better. The massive intake of nutrients every day makes you feel awesome. I feel healthier now than I've ever felt.

I'd recommend to anyone to do this. Even if you're not losing your hair. The method improves the health of your whole body. By sorting out your hormones so they're in the best balance everything else gets a thousand times better. Your hair, your skin, your energy, your sleep, your focus. Everything.

To anyone out there thinking about it. If you want to regrow your hair and get much more, do this method.

Highly recommend

When I was asked to test and review the Advanced Hair Research method a year ago I had several doubts about its legitimacy. A year later, my doubts have been completely eradicated. So much so in fact that I am more than happy to sing the deserved praises of this method.

The creator, Chris Carter, deserves great respect for single-handedly developing a system so effective and yet so simple to follow. His method is quite simply extraordinary.

I consider myself to be a critical thinking, perhaps even cynical man and the notion that a programme like this could have such an impact on my life was wholly unexpected.

The method, in essence, restores the scalp to the condition it was in before hair loss began so that no further hair loss occurs.

From what I gather, hair loss is caused by an androgen hormone called DHT. DHT causes hairs to miniaturize over several years until they become dormant. In other words, they no longer grow.

This method essentially sends a chemical message to the dormant hairs, telling them to regenerate into full-size hairs. It seems that hormones are both the cause of hair loss and the reason for hair growth and therefore having the right hormones in your scalp is the basis of this method and by the looks of it, it works incredibly well.

After following the programme for a month I started noticing small blonde hairs cropping up sporadically around my scalp. Within one more month there were at least 100 of these newly reactivated hairs appearing in various positions around my scalp. Whether my experience is typical, I can't say but judging by the reviews it seems my experience is reasonably standard.

For these reasons and much more I highly recommend this method.

Impressed

I really wasn't sure about the "AdvancedHairResearch" method. I decided to do some digging and I looked into the author Chris Carter to see if I could find out anything about him. There isn't much, but I found some scientific journals he's contributed to that have been published online and a few other things that would indicate he's genuine and has some credibility in the field - although its so hard to tell on the internet. Quite frankly it just seemed implausible to me that some hair loss researcher from London has found the cure for hair loss.

Curiosity got the better of me and I paid to access his program. I gave it a read and in fairness it's impressive. One thing I have to give him credit for is his vigorous referencing. Nothing would have irritated me more than to have found he'd re-written a load of stuff from the internet. His method is actually not bad. I've incorporated several of the method's elements into my daily regime. I was particularly impressed with the Alternation Method, which I consider to be a superb idea and not something I had thought of. Whether I will see any results is yet to be seen, but based on what I've read so far its a lot better than I expected and certainly worth a try. Based on the other reviews it looks like it will take some time before I see any new hair growth but I'm going to give it a go.

I would recommend them without doubt

I'm really surprised by the Advanced Hair Research Method. It's genuinely a very intelligent and sophisticated means of reversing hair loss. Since hair growth is controlled by hormones, by making the hormone levels in the scalp more like those in a youthful, healthy scalp, it's logical that hair should begin to grow again. In simple terms, according to the literature, scalp hair stops growing when subjected to the androgen hormone DHT. Whereas face and body hair 'activates' to become thicker and longer when subjected to DHT. The author, Chris Carter, has simply taken the action that causes face and body hair growth in men and used it on the scalp to cause dormant hair follicles to reactivate. However, dormant scalp hair follicles require different hormonal triggers to reactivate.

The programme leads the user through a process of gradually improving the hormonal balance in the scalp until it resembles that of a youthful, healthy scalp. Then, by a system of mildly damaging the scalp using a Dermaroller and then introducing increased IGF-1 (a growth factor), the dormant hair follicles begin to reactivate, just like the dormant hairs on a teenage boys face activate when he goes into puberty. The logic of the method is undeniably well thought through.

My hair regrowth

I suffer from standard male pattern baldness. Only 12 months ago I had a clearly visible bald patch in the crown of my hair. Over the course of 12 months new hairs began to grow in the bald patch. Now the crown of my hair is once again filled with hair. It is not yet at full thickness but compared with 12 months ago the difference is more than impressive. In fact, impressive is the word I'd use to describe Carter's method in every way. It is without a doubt something I would recommend to anyone suffering from male patern baldness. The logic is sound, the method is simple to follow, it's very cheap and it's decidedly more effective than any other treatment I have tried.

If you follow it correctly you will regrow your hair

I'm a 27 year old male with standard male pattern baldness. I started using the AHR method 2 years ago (I was an invitee in the first phase). I didn't reactivate my formant hair follicles fo rthe first year, then I made a few changes and my hair started growing back rapidly. Now my hair is pertty much as thick as it was when I was 21.

If you're following this method please make sure you do the scalp reset and daily exfoliation. This is especially true if you're a man who's used a lot of hair gels/waxes/etc. Just imagine for a minute how many years you've used hair gels and then gone to sleep with the gel still in your hair. That gelor wax or whatever then gets mashed into your scalp while you sleep.

I didn't think anything of this until I saw some of the other members mentioning that they got no hair regrowth until they did the daily exfoliation and then suddenly everything came together and their hair grew back rapidly. The exact same thing happened to me. My hair loss slowed down and maybe even stopped but I didn't see any of the new baby hairs everyone talks about. Then I started doing the exfoliation techniques every day and literally a month later I saw the little blond baby hairs. Hundreds of them. Maybe even thousands.

Basically by following the exfoliation method every day you get rid of all the dead skin cells, gels and sebum that have built up and filled the pores in your scalp where there hairs are supposed to grow. It takes some time to break this layer of build-up down but it works. And because you're invigorating your scalp so much all the amino acids and hair growth nutrients you get from the smoothies flood into your scalp and feed the new hairs. Then you add to that the IGF1 increase and the Alternation Method and hey presto, it works.

So make sure you do the exfoliation. Don't make my mistake.

This method is pure genius. If you follow it correctly you will regrow your hair.

I Still Can't Beleive it.

I used to have very thick awesome hair, it was like my trademark, or what made me good looking. I ate really badly, smoked, drank a lot and did quite a lot of drugs in my younger years and I thought that must have been the cause but then I quit all drugs, quit smoking, cut down my drinking to healthy amounts and starting eating a healthy diet. Still my hair loss was getting worse, even worse than before. So I was stuck, I didn't know what to do.

I signed up for an invitation to get the Advanced Hair Research Method before it was released.. It was slow progress at first, in fact for the first 6 months I didn't see a great deal of change. My hair loss stopped after only a few weeks of using the method but I didn't see any new hair growth and I was worried that it was too late for me, but i kept on using the method anyway. It didn't bother me because it only takes a few minutes and at the every least you feel like you're doing something positive. I was reading all the posts in the forums and seeing loads of people who had regrown their hair and I couldn't understand why it wasn't working for me.

Then a month ago I saw a post from someone who was using the scalp exfoliation twice a day instead of once and getting amazing results. It was a woman but the hair regrowth was crazy. So I decided to concentrate more on that. It takes like one minute per day so I was fine with it.

Then, guess what, just two weeks later i saw the same thing everyone else was talking about: new little hairs all in between my old hairs.

I think the trick is you have to try all the methods in the instructions because there might be one thing that's blocking your hair growth that you need to remove. The one thing I missed was the one thing I needed to do.

The method is really good. It takes you through a very simple step-by-step process of eliminating anything that can prevent hair growth - DHT, scalp fibrosis, a nutrient deficiency, excessive sebum in the scalp, blocked scalp pores, stress, low co-enzyme A, and way more. Some people are lucky they can do the two main things, the IGF-1 and the smoothie and that's all they need.

All I can say is don't skip a step! Do them a;l until you see hair regrowth. And just keep on going. Don't give up. I came so close to giving up and being a baldy for the rest of my life. I'm so damn glad I fixed it in the end. But I think I was lucky, or I was not wiling to give up. I think you have to be quite determined to use this method. But its worth it big time.

Good luck folks! Don't give up. If it's not working just email Chris, he's pretty slow at getting back but he does eventually ;) !!! Thanks Chris you're the man.

This method works

This method works. I've been using the method almost everyday for 3 months. I was very lucky and saw the new baby hairs starting the emerge after only one month. I can't explain the feeling you get when you see that. It's been extremely hard for me losing my hair because I'm very young and my hair has always been a big part of my identity. When my hair started getting thin I became much much worse looking. As a young man in my early twenties it was pretty devestating to start looking unhealthy and ugly. When you start losing your hair at such a young age I think people presume there's something wrong with you. Like you've got cancer or something.

So you can imagine when I saw that my hair was starting to get thicker so soon after starting the method I felt like a million bucks. My confidence is coming back, I have a spring in my step when I leave the house. I feel confident talking to people when there's a strong light above my head.

Every week I give me scalp a good inspection and every week I feel better. I get a real buzz out of seeing more new hairs.

I don't want to post my pictures up online because I'm too embarressed and I'm not using my real name in this review but I wanted you all to know you don't have to suffer like I did. 3 months has passed and I estimate that I must have grown about 1500 new hairs. I base this on my count of roughly 50 new hairs at the top of my forehead in an area about 1 inch. Multiply that by about 30 square inches on the top of my head and you get 1500 new hairs as a rough estimate.

There's a better way of counting the number of hairs somewhere in the instructions, but I can't find it.

Anyway I'm pretty happy with roughly 1500 new hairs in 3 months. Even if it was just 500 I'd be pretty happy! I'd of been happy with anything 3 months ago. Now my aim is to get 3000 more new hairs by Christmas time. I think its possible.

Great Experience!

I know a lot about hair loss. I've been trying to stop my hair loss for over 10 years with varying degrees of success. I've tried just about every treatment you can try. I've done LLLT. I used high strength minoxidil for several years. That seemed to really help at first but then like everything else I've tried, results diminished pretty quickly.

I used Propecia for a few years. I really thought that would do something, but it didn't really do much for me.

I've also tried a tonne of alternative treatments like supplements, chemicals, etc. Same story. Limited success.

So, onto this method that I stumbled upon roughly a year and a half ago...

I read it and I was impressed. Every instruction is backed up with scientific proof. It's pretty good.

As far as results go I've had better hair regrowth using this method than I've had with any other treatments I've used. That said, I haven't seen the kind of hair regrowth some of the other members have seen. I'm a little older than those guys though so I expect it to be a little harder for me.

The guys who put the program together have clearly put a lot of effort into it. It's not some cheap eBook that just rewrites stuff off the net. It's serious stuff. I won't go so far to say this method is genius but it's not far off.

It's really not like anything I've seen in the forums and I've been following the forums for two years. In the back of my mind I didn't think I'd learn anything new from this. But I was wrong, this really is worth a read.

New version is much better

I bought the old version of Chrises method years back but didn't really get much hair regrowth from that. It slowed down my hair loss but that's about it.

I saw a review here last year and it was for a new version of the method that sounded a lot better. So I asked Chris for the new version.

This new version has made a big difference for me. I am finally regrowing my hair! Believe me when I say this is miraculous after everything I've been through! I feel like I have tried every hair loss treatment known to man and nothing has worked. Finally I'm regrowing my hair. You guys are the best! Thank you so much guys . And thank you for the free updates!!! This is really amazing.

This is the real deal

27 year old, male.

For me, genetics were the reason for my prematrure hair loss. My dad has been completely bald for my whole life. My older brothers started getting a receding hair line in there early twenties. So I just figured there was nothing I could do.

Then I got into a rock band, grew my hair long. Then it started receding. Then it started getting thin. Then I had to chop it cos it started looking bad.

I started Chrises method a couple years ago. What can I say? Its the best thing I ever did. Now I guess I can see how geneitcs aren't exactly the cause of my hair loss but they just mean my hormones are pre programed to change. One of the results of that for me is going bald like my dad.

What the method is like to do

I was lazy as hell. I didnt do half the things in the method. To be honest I didnt even read the whole thing. I just read the first three steps. Thats all you need if you have male pattern baldness.

Anyway I posted my pitures to Chris so if you go to his website you can see why I'm giving this a 5 star review.

No doubt about it. My hair is regrowing. It takes a long time though. Dont expect instant results or anything. I saw one before and after on the website where the guys hair had regrown quite a lot in six weeks. But for me it was more like a year before I even noticed the difference. But looking back, the difference is crazy. I mean its crazy. My hair is like twice as thick. I dont know if I got lucky or what, but yeah, its pretty amazing.

Downsides

Downsides for me were:

Its expensive. The program cost me 50 bucks. But what he doesnt tell you is you have to buy like $30 worth of stuff on top of that. And even more later in the method if you do that stuff to. Also its a lot to read. Like I said I didnt even read half of it.

One feedback Id give Chris is to cut out all the science stuff. Its all good if you wanna know about that stuff but honestly all I want is the instructions. He could probably cut the text down by half if he cut out all the explanations behind every little thing.

At first making the smoothies was annoying but I got into a regime with that and made 3 days worth so that wasnt so bad.

All in all I cant really complain. To be honest its changed my life. I would recommend it to anyone whos losing their hair. This thing is the real deal.

14 years of hair loss ended. And now regrowing.

I've been losing my hair since the age of 18, although I only realized some years later (in my early 20s).

Around the age of 21 I started using 5% rogaine religiously. Sometimes I would even use it 3 times a day. After a few years I moved on to spectral Ds (I think is the name). That was supposed to be the best hair loss product in the world. And I started using an expensive supplement twice a day. I considered using Propecia but the side effects stopped me in the end after I saw my friend lose all interest in getting a girlfriend for years. I always had a girlfriend so that didn't matter but I didn't want a drug to change the way I feel and even think.

A few years past and looking back at the photos on Facebook, my hair had thinned so much and I'd been finding ever ingenious ways to hide it!

I started using a laser comb, 12% minoxidil you can get this stuff online by the way if you hunt for it), anti DHT shampoo, anti DHT supplements, eating healthily. Still no good.

One day I found Chrises program (nicehair.org) and I fell for it, bought it and never even read it for some reason.

Then about 3 months ago I emailed Chris and he sent me a new version of the program. He told me all about how it works, which I think is where I finally got the motivation to do it.

Chris, I hope you read this. YOU ARE THE BEST. YOU SAVED MY HAIR. CHRIS, THANK YOU.

I don't know what results other people have seen on this program but I am convinced that this is the only way to regrow your hair.

From the bottom of my heart

Thank you Chris
